Jade Flower, Faceted Blue Quartz Necklace

Approx 19" long including flower, jade flower 2" diameter

$590

This pale blue jade flower has been beautifully carved to show all its petals.  I wanted to give it  very spring and summer feeling so I have beaded it with faceted blue quartz in the same shade but a little lighter.  This is a great piece for evening or day all year round as well.

Chinese royalty has worn jade for centuries.   It is believed to be a spiritual stone and has been called the jewel of heaven.  It represents the five principal virtues:  charity, modesty, courage, justice and wisdom.  From cloudy white to golden brown, light to dark green, to rare lavender, jade is the most highly prized Asian gemstone.  Jade has been regarded as the most precious stone for thousands of years.  It is believed to protect the wearer and ensure good luck and good health as well as to increase life span.
